Boova's testimony: food as idol, running to the Father

Boova shares an extended testimony about food as an idol and emotional addiction: peaking over 640 pounds at 19-20, losing his parents, binge eating in secret, and his father's fatal heart attack at 44. After his girlfriend's family introduced him to a Whole30-style 30-day reset about 45 days earlier, he began running to God in prayer, worship, and Scripture whenever cravings hit — losing nearly 40 pounds and, more importantly, experiencing a dependence on God he had never known. He names his motivation — wanting to marry his girlfriend, who is running part of an orphanage in Madagascar — and invites listeners to contact him via his Troy Engledinger Twitter handle or info@livefromthepath.org.
